Just got a tasting tour from Tom Ryan (oldest brother of the Ryan Brothers) and had a wonderful time listening to the process of making the different styles of coffee they have on tap. We tried Hot Cold Brew (so smooth and rich), Mexican Mocha (like a Horchata with espresso) which I ordered afterwards, Matcha Mocha, and a clear Green Coffee that resembled tea that was unreal. Glad we stopped off here on our trolley tour. Very cool vibes and great pick me up! read more

First time checking out Ryan Bros. The Barrio Logan location has plenty of seating and great for coworking or just changing out. The front space has some games you can play. The bar area in the middle offers outlets around every seat for convenient device charging. I was here on Saturday morning and there was plenty of street parking. It wasn't too busy inside either. I got mixed service from the staff. I ordered the matcha flight but received a coffee flight. Which was fine but I was a little confused as to why they didn't give me the thing I ordered. I do want to go back and hopefully try the matcha flight next time. read more

What an awesome spot! My bestie and I had a great time meeting for coffee and lunch here last week. The entire coffee shop is decorated for the holidays and had a fun, festive atmosphere. The food was delicious, I went with my third choice meal due to them being out of a lot of things which was a bummer but the food was good regardless. Additionally, they offer christmas cocoa and espresso flights which were super yummy and a fun way to get into the holiday spirit! Parking is kind of a nightmare at this location but if you can snag a spot, definitely stop by and cross this holiday must see off your list! read more

Ryan Bros Coffee - Great Vibes & Delicious Drinks! Ordered the Cold Brew Flight with cold foam -- such an awesome idea to sample different flavors! The Mexican Mocha, Dirty Chai, Trifecta, and Black Mango Tea were all unique and fun to taste. Love the cute aesthetic and presentation. We also tried the Avocado Toast, Main Street Special Burrito, and a Matcha Latte -- everything was fresh and super tasty. The coffee shop itself is huge with plenty of seating and a welcoming vibe. Staff was friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Definitely a great spot to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. read more

This is my first visit. I really liked the ambiance. It's spacious and great for group gatherings or if you just want a place to enjoy a cup of coffee. The staff were friendly. I got a latte with Irish Cream. It was too sweet for my taste though. The açaí bowl had too much granola and not enough açaí for my taste. Overall, it's a good place to hang out but it would not my first choice for coffee. It's a 3.5 star place for me. read more

I actually visited this spot as a business-school field trip and was able to meet the owner and check out their coffee operations, but I also purchased a vanilla latte! This coffee shop is located at a nice corner off Main Street. Lots of free parking around. It's a pretty big space with lots of seating. The employees are nice, and I was able to learn about their coffee philosophy from the time I spent learning. My vanilla latte was delicious, perfectly sweet and strong. They offer dairy alternatives. I was able to try a sample of their green coffee which was unique, a bit minty and refreshing. My friends got their food and said it was good but I wasn't able to try it. You can tell they're really passionate about what they do here! I recommend it. read more

Ryan Bros Coffee - Fun festive holiday espresso flight. What a wonderful way to start the day. Super cute inside. This place is absolutely worth a stop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

This has been on my coffee to do list for quite awhile as I was particularly interested in their flights. What I didn't realize was the terrible neighborhood this is in, which have their fault, but note to the wise, especially women, do not park and walk here alone. I felt I was putting my life at risk parking 3 blocks away at noon. It was pretty scary I ordered the flight but was not asked nor told that they would all be iced. I do not drink nor like iced coffee so had I known I probably would've ordered something else, especially for $20. The flight was beautifully displayed and as good as iced can be (which for me is not great) but I the glasses were so tiny (and half of it ice), I'm pretty sure all of them put together would barely make one regular drink, again for $20? I think you're better off just ordering one regular sized drink for $6. And remember to come with a burly friend for security read more

I saw on IG that this coffee shop had cute delicious festive cold brew flights! I had to make my way to one of their locations as the holidays were nearing end. The location my boyfriend and I went to is the one located in the corner of Main St and Cesar E. Chavez Pkwy where the Barrio Logan Gateway sign is. There's ample free street parking around the area. I was super excited for their festival cold brew flights but the day my boyfriend and I went, they ran out of ingredients to make them! Sad! But regardless, they still had a cold brew flight of flavors to choose from. My boyfriend and I got their Trifecta, Mexican Mocha, French Vanilla Caramel combo, and Candy Cane (yay for the latter!). The barista had cold foam on top of each drink (peep at pic), and omg. Every one of were delicious! The cold foam definitely enhanced the drink and surprisingly wasn't very sweet. Our top favorites were the trifecta and Mexican mocha. I was actually debating on getting a full size trifecta for the road LOL but definitely a spot to revisit in the future in my opinion. My boyfriend also go their Chocolate Scone which looked kind of dry from first impression but surprisingly and thankfully, was not! Heating it up definitely helped. Overall, even though I didn't get my festive cold brew flight, the regular flight we chose with the cold foam were delicious! We will be back next year to try get their festive flights (and for more of their trifecta cold brew). read more

I tried their Funky Monkey. I was craving a smoothie, it was very good, I'd recommend it if you're craving a ok mething sweet. One of my favorite lattes is the Bon Fire latte; although I recommend ordering it without the cayenne pepper because it is spicy. If you haven't done so I also recommend ordering a flight. Staff is friendly and the service is great. I love the vibes and decor at the this shop. read more

Ryan Bros Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Stopped in during the Chicano Park Day celebration. The interior of the shop was cute, lots of natural light, with the typical coffee shop industrial feel. Unfortunately they were out of the Horchata coffee, so I ordered a Mexican mocha instead. I also ordered a TAB sandwich as well. The coffee was ok. It just tasted like chocolate milk , nothing special. The sandwich was a bit of a let-down. It was turkey lunch meat, some bacon, and mayo pressed like a panini. For the cost, it was not worth it at all. I probably won't be returning. I spent over $20 for a small chocolate milk that was supposed to be a coffee and a mediocre sandwich. read more

This location is in city heights which means that parking can be rough. Luckily we got in early in the morning that we were able to find street parking out back. The flight itself was okay, I'm not a big fan of strong coffee and these were very strong. We got the jacks pig bagel and that was very delicious. I'd come back to try the matcha but other than that, they had a cute photo op and the shop itself is small but nice. Plus side is that they do military discount! read more

This place.... it is very popular among locals and it is very rustic. Conveniently located in the heart of Barrio Logan, if you want a strong and good coffee, this is your spot. They also have other breakfast options that are available and appear to be made to order. I got a frapuccino and a chocolate croissant. It was mid-tier. A bit on the pricy side but I'd definitely try other options and see how this place lives up to the hype. read more

When I first moved to San Diego to attend USD, I was surrounded by Ryan Bros Coffee (founded by USD alums). I like their coffee and its always great to support local. They have this location in Barrio Logan that's convenient, especially near Chicano Park. While I am not a big caffeine drinker, some of my colleagues ordered their green coffee. I've never seen anything like it, but this stuff is HOPPED UP with caffeine! Perfect for the person that needs the ultra ultra ultra level boost. read more

I haven't been to Ryan Bros in years because I live in Chula Vista. I came in because I was about to do a long drive to LA and wanted a nice experience before I went. I called in my order and they were fun and pleasant and even joked around with me. I came in and the customers are chill. It's a nice environment to study or just hang out. Kaylie took my order and she was a gem. Just great energy and I didn't get the name of the guy making my drinks. I talked to him too and he was really fun to talk to. I ordered a burrito and Daisy brought it too me and was great as well. It's rare you get treated all around well from every stuff member like that. I loved my California burrito and I got a iced Americano and it was too notch. I loathe Starbucks and the horrible inauthentic service they try and pass off. This place was the gold standard of a local coffee shop. I'm in a great mood and ready to drive to LA. Mad love to you guys. read more

Hello Mr Tom. You have a great coffee shop. No joke. I protest Starbucks. Your prices are comparable. But your coffee is better. I've been coming for a month and will be leaving because of work assignment. I bring my own to save the earth. Sometimes they rinse. Sometimes I get a hello. Sometimes I get a smile. Sometimes I feel welcome. Point is im 73 elderly, but don't l look it. Dress and look like a HIPSTER in style and attitude. Thank youuu for your time sir. read more

What a great place to stop by and enjoy a delicious cup of coffee! I love that they open at 6am. I was in the area early in the morning and in desperate need of some coffee. Parking was limited but that's usually the case in the area since it's close to the shipyard and all the Nasco employees park around there. I love how easy it is to find the spot and the inside is huge! So much seating available and there's a small living room lounge area to sit and enjoy a good cup of coffee. It was nice and chilly in the morning and I paired it with their seasonal pumpkin latte. The flavor was great and the staff was really nice. I highly recommend them just give yourself time to find parking. read more

Don't order a hot drink here. Tastes like a gas station coffee. They put so much chocolate at the bottom of the mocha that it was sludge. They use a powder and I think they over did it a bit today. We returned our drinks and they gave us a cold brew. Been here previously for the cold brew, and it was great. Service is nice but slow. I think they forgot our initial order. Overall would come back for cold brew. read more

UPDATE: Thank you Mr. Tom R for your time this only shows you care about your business and the clients. I would be here every morning and the Asian girl(sorry don't know her name) was my to go girl when making my Mexican mocha. She knew exactly what she was doing. Sorry can't say much about the others I would often see them on their phones and maybe that's why coffee wasn't as great. So this is the reason I stopped coming back.

Ryan Bros Coffee - Vanilla Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

First time visiting a Ryan Bros Coffee and learned that the Barrio Logan location is the headquarters where they roast their beans for their other stores. This location is spacious with plenty of seating, very chill vibes, average noise level making it a great place to study and decent street parking. The service I received was pretty good, they're generous with the samples of the different types of cold brews that they offer. I got the hot nitro draft which is your typical pour over coffee, infused with nitro making the drink a bit smoother than normal. I sampled the cold brews and they didn't taste that strong and were not as smooth as nitro coffees should be. I would come back next time to try the cold teas on tap. I'd say overall the coffee isn't the best, but it's not bad, would recommend trying it out. read more

Fun cafe to stop in Barrio Logan. They have bakery treats, tons of flavors of coffee and tea, and huge bags of tea and coffee for purchase. You can also get sandwiches. They have taps of coffee and tea as well! There's a cozy spot with 2 stairs down with couches and books. There's tons of seating and great music. You can buy shirts, hats, greeting cards, tea leaves, coffee beans, tote bags, mugs, and more here. The outstanding bit about this spot is the service. The employees couldn't have been kinder. I would stop here again without a doubt. Life's too short to be bitter ;) read more

Usually walk my dog around there and typically duck in midday when it's dead to get a solid 90 mins of work in. My dog is typically scared of (insert literally anything and everything here) but for some reason he's as cool as a cucumber when we get here. That's good energy I wanna be around. The coffee isnt terribly amazing but it gets the job done. I've had several things off the menu but I like going with the flight because I like variety. The workers are chill which makes any place a good place. The only thing I absolutely can't stand is that the wifi never works. Tried on my phone. My work laptop. My personal iPad. I can't ever seem to get on. The pastries don't look too appetizing and so I typically pass on it. There's a book shelf which has some interesting reads to browse through and the seats in that section of the shop are comfy. Which is why it's always taken up first. Feels like someone always leaves a newspaper for the next person so that's a plus. Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way to visit it but if you're in the area then it's a cool place to duck into and chill midday or even on a Saturday or Sunday morning during low foot traffic. If you see me feel free to say hi haha. read more

Came here to try their christmas flight and it did not disappoint. Every one of their espresso drinks was superb. The server was calm and patient though I had a crying baby to deal with. They brought our food and drinks promptly. I lived the cute set christmas set up even in such a small space. The only difficult thing I found was that parking was really difficult. Even on a random Tuesday morning, there was no clear parking in sight, having to park several blocks away. read more

Came here on a Friday morning for a quick coffee break before running on a few errands. A lot has changed since I last went here (they've expanded their menu and got rid of a few things) but I was able to talk to one of the Ryan Brothers, Carmine, who was super chill & very nice. As an Indonesian, I quickly noticed the bike decoration near the entrance and we talked about Indonesian culture and his brief stint there. There are now a few Ryan Bros Coffee shops (City Heights (my go-to spot) & Lemon Grove (I think this closed)) but this was the first one I went to when I just moved to San Diego and volunteered with Trolley Dance. They have great deals, delicious food (I recommend the cheese danish) and friendly service. I would definitely go back to try their burrito or just for the atmosphere. It felt very safe & welcoming. Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Parking: 1/5 - there is a 15 minute parking spot or you can park across the street. read more

The coffee beans are the best I have ever found. The customer care is just as good. I drove from Alpine to get Espresso Gold beans at 3:00 in the afternoon. When I arrived, there were no bags on the shelf. The owner came out to let me know that if I could just wait a few minutes, they would get my order ready and he even apologized for the very brief wait. Since I was waiting, I ordered their most popular drink, a Mexican Mocha. There is not much angst or sadness that a Ryan Bros Mexican Mocha will not wash away, so good! Driving back to Alpine, the smell of the beans in my car just topped it all off. I love this company! read more
